We’ve been posting deals on Twitter since March 2009, but over the past several years it’s been fun to watch the proliferation of frum (religious Jewish) humor on Twitter. The @VaadHaBadchanim has an annual bracket for the frum Tweet of the year.

@delta We are unable to honor your request for $50,000,000 in reimbursement compensation for the ATL power outage, but we have deposited 4,000 bonus miles into your Delta SkyMiles® account as a goodwill gesture.
We hope that @ATLairport will be in your future travel plans.

— DansDeals (@DansDeals) December 20, 2017

@ELALUSA @EL_AL_AIRLINES We are unable to honor your request for $700,000,000 in compensation, but we can offer you a free* flight between Tel Aviv and Europe, subject to capacity controls, fuel surcharges, and an NDA.
We hope that @Israel will be in your future travel plans!

@DansDeals is a noun:
"No, I didn't use a travel agent, it was a dansdeal"

It's a verb:
"I'm not waiting for black Friday, I'm going to dansdeal it"

It's an adjective:
"when you're at target, just let me know if there are any dansdeal type things"

Only one person can challenge @realDonaldTrump and win: @DansDeals founder Dan Eleff. Who can beat the promise of a @Tesla for all, taxbreaks for Lifetime Platinum members, Black Friday every week, and socialized credit scores. Oh, and about foreign policy – he's a whiz at Catan.

What a wild Cinderella story!

Incredible meeting with Daniel Eleff of @DansDeals. The man had a passion, he started a blog, went all in, and has now turned it into an empire.

A one hour meeting and many fans who came over and asked in amazement “Are you Dan?”

Which is the bigger joke?

— Leibel (@Squilled) August 5, 2018

Your tweet is a joke because A) your conversation is censored as we aren't worthy to read about. B) Dan's specialty is his ability to dumb down the most complicated and complex redemptions. If he couldn't figure out, even after speaking with you, I'm not buying it.

— Leibel (@Squilled) August 5, 2018
